Clark County Fire District 6’s internal accounting system led to more than $9 million in errors in calculating its liabilities in 2015 and 2016, according to the State Auditor’s Office, which blamed the problems on district staff’s lack of training in the system and knowledge of state reporting requirements.
The errors were ultimately fixed, according to a finding released Tuesday by the auditor’s office, and, according to the fire district, didn’t impact taxpayers.
The auditor’s office regular examination of the district’s financial reporting found a few problems with the fire district’s accounting system, problems that affected the district’s ability to provide reliable financial information.
